Dave, As you probably just got done with the same rain we did I have never seen this much rain in my yard and driveway. Thankfully my hoops survided so far but Thurs. is another story. Hope everyone makes it through especially the people in Alabama and Miss. today. Birmingham just had a wide tornado blow through.

I would take that as I won't be able to plant 2 of my plants if this keeps up.

Same here, many flooded towns in S. Missouri with levees breaking and a big tornado last Friday in Saint Louis. A girl I work with completely lost her home and both cars. Her husband and kids were okay.

If things go as the expected in the Seattle area over the next few days, it will be the coldest April ever in this area. Rained all day here with a snow level of 1000 ft. in the mountains. Is this ever going to stop so our plants can go in the ground!!

We are around 5.5 inches for April. I have a lot of night crawlers actually drowning in my yard and patch !! It is so wet they are coming out in the daylight hours to get air.The ground is just too saturated for them to breath through their skin. My son picked about 2 dozen at 5:30 in the afternoon on Tuesday ! Just crazy wet out !!!

We picked up about 7 inches here in N. Arkansas last week. Some of my dad's pumpkins almost washed out but mine and his both are surviving. Luke, we are down river along from Poplar Bluff, MO and our the Black River is now at a record stage... the only way to Wal-Mart or McDonalds (etc.) is by boat!
